can: c_can: Added support for Bosch C_CAN controller

Bosch C_CAN controller is a full-CAN implementation which is compliant
to CAN protocol version 2.0 part A and B. Bosch C_CAN user manual can be
obtained from:

http://www.semiconductors.bosch.de/media/en/pdf/ipmodules_1/c_can/users_manual_c_can.pdf

This patch adds the support for this controller.
The following are the design choices made while writing the controller
driver:
1. Interface Register set IF1 has be used only in the current design.
2. Out of the 32 Message objects available, 16 are kept aside for RX
   purposes and the rest for TX purposes.
3. NAPI implementation is such that both the TX and RX paths function
   in polling mode.
